Sometimes I find it so hard to understand
We had some laughs together
Together we tried to change hand in hand
But now it's come to this, for now goodbye
And I must love you and leave you
And you must love me and leave me
And I must love you and leave you

But if ...

[CHORUS:]
If I had another chance
I would have the same romance
With life and you
The lands we travelled through
If I had my time again
I'd change it not another way
With you and life
The happiness and the knife
That's life (life)
That's life (life)
That's life (life, life, life)

A penny for your thoughts right now
Hey, I think I know
It's sad but I'll not let you see
One single tear when it's time for you to go
Hey we can say our goodbyes with a smile
And I must love you and leave you
And you must love me and leave me
And I must love you and leave you

But if ...

[CHORUS]

And I must love you and leave you
And you must love me and leave me
And I must love you and leave you
